| Martin Luther King, who visited Hawai‘i, recognized the concept of aloha. His name was brought up by Jim Albertini at the County Council hearing on the resolution for peaceful negotiations over the Korea situation. |
The idea was brought to the council by Koohan Paik, who lives here but grew up in Korea. She said her father was a refugee of the Korean War, became the first Korean attorney in the nation and moved back to Korea. She said that with her family background in the Korean War, and herself an appreciative U.S. citizen, she is concerned that warships have been sent from Pearl Harbor to the Western Pacific to become involved with the North Korean situation. She urged "diplomatic talks rather than military strikes." She said she also worries about a nuclear winter that could screen light from the sun and severely reduce production of food and damage the environment, should a nuclear war break out.
 |
| Koohan Paik suggested the resolution for diplomacy to the County Council. |
Jim Albertini, of Malu ‘Āina, said his organization supports the resolution. He said the United States has spent $5 trillion on war since 9/11, money that could have been spent on such domestic needs as health care, education and cleaning up the environment, including here in Hawai‘i County. "The only shelter is peace," he said. "It's time to support diplomacy not war in the Korean Peninsula and all over the world." Albertini said that Martin Luther King recommended not only looking to those perceived as enemies to stop violence but also to the people of the U.S. and the U.S. government.
Stephanie Tabata, of Ka‘ū, noted that the resolution uses the word aloha. She said using the word aloha needs to be recognized as serious and spiritual and that Hawai‘i is also more than just a word. She said Hawai‘i is the piko - the umbilical cord of the whole world, the earth. "Tūtū Pele is still giving out life through her lava." Tabata advocated the practice "to live aloha." She quoted the late Rev. Abraham Akaka, who said "aloha is love seeking to unite what is separated in the world....Aloha is the power that unites heart with hearts, soul with souls, life with life, culture with culture, race with race, nation with nations. Aloha is the power that can reunite."
The resolution points out that "a peaceful solution to the present situation between the United States and North Korea is of particular importance to the State of Hawai‘i given our geographic location and vulnerability in the event of a war between the two nations."It says that "a call by the people of Hawai‘i for a peaceful resolution to any serious conflict situation, not just this one, is in keeping with our islands’ most treasured ideal, that of aloha."
The resolution points out that North Korea "has conducted six nuclear tests since 2006, including a recent hydrogen bomb test, and a spate of ballistic missile tests with ever-increasing range."
It notes that the U.S. "has responded by, among other things, dispatching a naval armada to the Korean peninsula region earlier in the year, conducting bomber flights close to the North Korean border, and calling upon other countries to enact and enforce rigorous economic sanctions against the reclusive nation."

"After running low on urban targets, U.S. bombers destroyed hydroelectric and irrigation dams, flooding farmlands and destroying crops. The U.S, dropped 635,000 tons of explosives on North Korea. That's over 100,000 more tons than used in the entire Pacific during World War II. Thirty-two thousand tons of those bombs were were Napalm. General Curtis Lamae, head of the Strategic Air Command, said 'every town was burned down and one out over every five people was killed from war, or starvation, or exposure.' That's why North Korea is so belligerent," said Harden.

HAWAI‘I DEFENSE CONTRACTORS MUST MEET NEW REQUIREMENTS, by the end of the year, reports Sen. Mazie Hirono. Today, during a Senate Armed Services Committee on strengthening cybersecurity, she questioned Assistant Secretary of Defense for Homeland Defense and Global Security Kenneth Rapuano on how the Department is helping defense contractors comply with heightened requirements to ensure sensitive information is protected.
 |
| Rapuano told Hirono that DOD will ensure that all contractors receive notice of new cybersecurity requirements. |
“As we continue to face cybersecurity threats, it’s critical that we increase data protection,” said Hirono, Ranking Member of the Senate Armed Services Seapower Subcommittee. “I will continue to work with the Department of Defense to ensure that contractors in Hawai‘i, especially small businesses, have enough information and time to meet the new requirements.”
By Dec. 31, all Department of Defense contractors must comply with updated cybersecurity requirements. During the hearing, Rapuano told Hirono that he will provide information on how the Department of Defense is notifying contractors of the new requirements to ensure that the measures are sufficient to reach all defense contractors affected.
Hirono also pressed Acting Department of Homeland Security Undersecretary for the National Protection and Programs Directorate Christopher Krebs on actions the administration is taking to prevent foreign interference in U.S. elections.

She reminded him of his comment regarding Judge Derrick Kahele Watson when Watson, a federal judge in Hawai‘i, stopped the implementation of Pres. Donald Trump's first travel ban. She quoted Sessions saying last April, "I'm amazed that a judge sitting on an island in the Pacific can issue an order that stops the President of the United States from what appears to be clearly his statutory and constitutional power." Said Hirono, "When a public official like you makes a statement like that, it tends to legitimize the views of people who think that the great ethnic and racial diversity in my state makes us somehow less American."
 |
| Sen. Mazie Hirono questioned Jeff Sessions Wednesday on travel ban, firing U.S. Attorneys and DACA. |
Hirono also asked Sessions on Wednesday why all U.S. Attorneys were dismissed without warning several months into the Trump administration. Sessions admitted that he did have something to do with the firings.
Regarding Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, Hirono told Sessions that when undocumented immigrant young people signed up for DACA to stay in the country they relied on the government and believed that information given would not be used to target them. She called it a bait and switch should the information be used to deport them. Sessions said the answer in solving the DACA situation is with Congress and that Homeland Security is responsible for carrying out the DACA program.
After the hearing, which was designed to review Sessions' work as U.S. Attorney General to date, Hirono posted, "As Attorney General, Jeff Sessions has demeaned our independent judiciary, and continues to attack DREAMers. We will continue to hold him accountable."
